Do you remember what you were doing on September 11, 2001?
September 11, 2001 started off as a normal day for everyone
around the country. Little did we know that America would show its true colors
and come together during such a tragic time.
As most of us do, I remember exactly where I was when I found
out that the Twin towers in New York were struck by planes. The information and
the sights shown on television were numbing. Watching plans fly into the building
in the middle of the morning when people were in work and just starting their
day, probably sipping their first cup of coffee. Not only did one building go
down in the tragic attack not even a half hour later the second follow.
Four commercial planes were hijacked; I believe two out of
the four had departed right over my house from Logan Airport. The approximate deaths
were about 3,000 people. Men, women and children; were going about their normal
day, most of which never had the chance to survive. Such a tragic day for the
United States; one that will never be forgotten.
